Translation:
1 [ ] Yahw[eh 2 3 the g]rea[t who keeps] 4
the covenant and 5 [the] loyalty toward those who lo[ve 6
him] and keep [his commandments]
7 [ ] 8 the eternal [ 9 the] blessing from ever [sn]are
10 and from evil 11 because redemption 12 is
in him, for Yahweh 13 is our [re]storer [and] a rock.
(14) May Yahweh 15 bless
(you), [and 16 may he] keep you; [may] 17 Yahweh cause 18
his face to sh[ine upon you]. (Peter Bekins, Inscriptions from the World of
the Bible: A Reader and Introduction to Old Northwest Semitic [Peabody,
Mass.: Hendrickson Academic, 2020], 134)
